I was lucky to have spent time with Phil in the last several years, including time on the beloved porch. He also showed me around his wonderful home, and we talked lanterns too! He was interested in the history of his home, his street and village, and I tried to help answer some questions, while also learning from him too.
I found Phil Embury to be a soft-spoken, kind and thoughtful man. He stopped in my office sometime in the mid to late months of 2021, and was quite interested in learning more about the history related to his specific neighborhood of Fairport. I was happy to help such a kind gentleman.
My condolences to the Embury family and friends.
Sincerely,
Bill Poray, Municipal Historian - Fairport and Perinton
